- UUnjiVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •17 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI had a fantastic dining experience at Dio Deka. This Greek-Mediterranean gem truly delivers on flavor and hospitality. The yogurt was absolutely delicious, and the sauce made with it was just as incredible—rich, tangy, and the perfect complement to the dishes. The little amuse-bouche surprises between courses were a great touch, making the meal feel extra special. As for the main dishes, the lamb chops were cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and full of flavor. The meatballs were equally amazing, well-seasoned and so satisfying. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. Our server was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for amazing Greek-Mediterranean food with warm hospitality.More infoDio DekaPrice: Very Expensive• Greek• Los Gatos•4.7

- MMelissaSan Francisco Bay Area •2 reviews5.0Dined on 4 Feb 2025Fantastic experience at Grandview for my husband's birthday celebration. Very attentive service and the food was outstanding. It was a chilly windy evening so we sat inside but we were still able to enjoy the view. We started off with the calamari- cooked perfectly, we then each had a salad- the Caesar Salad and the GV Tres Colori- both were beautiful and tasty. My husband ordered the Lobster Carbonaro and I had the wild Salmone Grandview, we were both very happy with our entrées. Highly recommend!More infoGrand ViewPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• San Jose•4.6
